Psalms 89:5
3 You said, “I have made a covenant with My chosen one, I have sworn to David My servant:
4 ‘I will establish your offspring forever and build up your throne for all generations.’” Selah
The heavens praise Your wonders, O LORD— Your faithfulness as well— in the assembly of the holy ones.
6 For who in the skies can compare with the LORD? Who among the heavenly beings is like the LORD?
7 In the council of the holy ones, God is greatly feared, and awesome above all who surround Him.
